We’ve been hacking our sense of touch for centuries! Here's how... This episode was supported by Skillshare, the first 1000 people to join with this link will get two months free http://skl.sh/unodosoftrace10 👇👇👇 Sources & More down here 👇👇👇 ✨I’m on Patreon! ✨ https://ift.tt/2sT3Fay Every new patron causes a litany of excited squeals. Thank you for all your support 💕 Thanks to #coronavirus we’re all feeling #touchdeprivation these days while we stay at home. A friend of mine casually mentioned he'd not touched someone in two months, and that got me thinking about physical #touch! How does it work? What physically happens in our body when we touch another person, or a desk, or a blanket? Where did this sense come from, and does every organism have this ability? What cells make our skin so sensitive, and what happens in our brain when we come in contact with things? You'll get all these answers and so much more in this experimental series of #unodosoftrace! We're talking about neuroscience, psychology, biology, coronavirus, isolation, touch deprivation, you name it we got it. Each episode I release will dig a little deeper into the world of physical contact, touch and how it all works! I hope you love it. 👉👉👉THE TOUCH SERIES 👈👈👈 Part I: PHYSICAL TOUCH, HOW DOES IT WORK? 🔗 https://youtu.be/Py_2uom3MfY Part II: EMOTIONAL TOUCH, WHAT IS IT AND WHY DO WE NEED IT? 🔗https://youtu.be/_8s_Vi1CrLA Part III: TOUCH DEPRIVATION : WHAT HAPPENS IF WE STOP TOUCHING? 🔗https://youtu.be/1EndJywQj_U Part IV: TOUCH IN SPAAAACE 🔗https://youtu.be/f09-DLIe4W4 Part V: HACKING OUR SENSE OF TOUCH 🔗https://youtu.be/Qm_qcoI6yT8 Subscribe for all the episodes!!

Can this altered belief about the body also affect physiological mechanisms involved in body-ownership, such as motor control? Augmentation-related brain plasticity https://ift.tt/2zR5kBg Today, the anthropomorphism of the tools and the development of neural interfaces require reconsidering the concept of human-tools interaction in the framework of human augmentation. This review analyzes the plastic process that the brain undergoes when it comes into contact with augmenting artificial sensors and effectors and, on the other hand, the changes that the use of external augmenting devices produces in the brain. 'Rubber hand illusion' reveals how the brain understands the body https://ift.tt/2e3iTjd Experiments with a fake body part have revealed how the brain becomes confused during a party trick known as the rubber hand illusion. Researchers in Italy performed the trick on a group of volunteers to explore how the mind combines information from the senses to create a feeling of body ownership. The Brain Senses Touch beyond the Body https://ift.tt/2Moqk5Q Luke Miller, a cognitive neuroscientist, was toying with a curtain rod in his apartment when he was struck by a strange realization. When he hit an object with the rod, even without looking, he could tell where it was making contact like it was a sensory extension of his body. Body ownership and the four-hand illusion https://ift.tt/3dYPYcR Recent studies of the rubber hand illusion (RHI) have shown that the sense of body ownership is constrained by several factors and yet is still very flexible. However, exactly how flexible is our sense of body ownership?

But what does an absence of touch do to a person? The World of Touch https://ift.tt/2WwQ9Gw Despite its behavioural significance and omnipresence throughout the animal kingdom, the sense of touch is still one of the least studied and understood modalities. There are multiple forms of touch, and the mechanosensory basis underlying touch perception must be divided into several distinct sub-modalities (such as vibration or pressure), as will be made clear by the contributions elsewhere in this encyclopaedia. Violence and touch deprivation in adolescents. https://ift.tt/2Lxh1jm The increasing incidence of violence among children and adolescents highlights the importance of identifying at-risk profiles as well as assessing interventions for preventing violence. Empirical research has suggested behavioral, central nervous system, and neurotransmitter/neurohormone dysregulation in violent individuals Perceived touch deprivation and body image: some observations among eating disordered and non-clinical subjects. https://ift.tt/2Wxv7Yc The developmental literature suggests that touch, consisting of secure holding and hugging, plays an important role in the formation of body image. The Coronavirus Outbreak Keeps Humans from Touching. Here's Why That's So Stressful https://ift.tt/2yRXqav With people around the world practicing social distancing and self-isolation to curb the further spread of coronavirus, some are starting to feel the effects of a lack of human touch.

Here's What We Know https://ift.tt/34aWj1j At least one-third of the world is under some type of lockdown because of the coronavirus pandemic, as governments urge social distancing to stymie the virus' spread. That's because the COVID-19 virus is insidious. What We Need to Understand About Asymptomatic Carriers if We’re Going to Beat Coronavirus https://ift.tt/2yndVek ProPublica’s health reporter Caroline Chen explains what the conversation around asymptomatic coronavirus carriers is missing, and what we need to understand if we’re going to beat this nefarious virus together. Implications of asymptomatic carriers for infectious disease transmission and control https://ift.tt/2zpWxGv For infectious pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae, some hosts may carry the pathogen and transmit it to others, yet display no symptoms themselves. These asymptomatic carriers contribute to the spread of disease but go largely undetected and can therefore undermine efforts to control transmission. Understanding the natural history of carriage and its relationship to disease is important for the design of effective interventions to control transmission. Asymptomatic infection is the rule, although rare cases may exhibit exudative pharyngitis and cervical lymphadenopathy. https://ift.tt/2yyF4Lw Asymptomatic infection (i.e., seropositivity without disease) of human primate workers with herpes B virus, including most of those who had histories of bites and scratches, has not been detected.14,15 Most human infections have been reported from animals without any symptoms. Estimating the asymptomatic proportion of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases on board the Diamond Princess cruise ship, Yokohama, Japan, 2020 https://ift.tt/2RWLESQ On 5 February 2020, in Yokohama, Japan, a cruise ship hosting 3,711 people underwent a 2-week quarantine after a former passenger was found with COVID-19 post-disembarking. As at 20 February, 634 persons on board tested positive for the causative virus. We conducted statistical modelling to derive the delay-adjusted asymptomatic proportion of infections, along with the infections’ timeline. The estimated asymptomatic proportion was 17.9% (95% credible interval (CrI): 15.5–20.2%). Most infections occurred before the quarantine start. Mary Mallon (1869-1938) and the history of typhoid fever https://ift.tt/2ezieDN Mary Mallon was born in 1869 in Ireland and emigrated to the US in 1884. She had worked in a variety of domestic positions for wealthy families prior to settling into her career as a cook. As a healthy carrier of Salmonella typhi her nickname of “Typhoid Mary” had become synonymous with the spread of disease, as many were infected due to her denial of being ill. She was forced into quarantine on two separate occasions on North Brother Island for a total of 26 years and died alone without friends, having evidently found consolation in her religion to which she gave her faith and loyalty. Scientists get a handle on what made Typhoid Mary's infectious microbes tick https://ift.tt/2gjqf3N Music by Epidemic Sound: https://ift.tt/2p77xQr Hello Science opening sound by Twin Musicom Love you, #nerdfam!

#Apollo13 was an engineering marvel, a story of amazing human perseverance and (because we didn't get to walk on the moon again) a huge let down. Now a handful of nerds are going to get together and watch this movie together, and you can join!! Since we've all got work from home jobs now, why not join some #scicomm nerds on a live stream? We all have to physically distance, but that doesn't mean we have to socially isolate! Just because we're in self quarantine, doesn't mean we can't learn together! Take care of yourselves, #washyourhands, and don't overdo the coronavirus talk! ~~~ 🌃 FOLLOW OUR GUESTS ON SOCIAL 🌃 ~~~ MARY ROBINETTE KOWAL https://ift.tt/1ixC6Bo https://twitter.com/MaryRobinette https://ift.tt/2xYiwRv https://ift.tt/2nyQwyV https://ift.tt/2wq8GKk - Preorder The Relentless Moon from my local indie bookstore AMY SHIRA TEITEL https://twitter.com/AmyShiraTeitel https://ift.tt/2QtPWR1 ~~~ 🥳FOLLOW OUR HOSTS TOO 🥳~~~ KISHORE HARI http://twitter.com/sciencequiche BOBAK FERDOWSI http://twitter.com/tweetsoutloud https://ift.tt/1S7Xu3o AND ME!!
